Master Amir Lotfi Azad wants you to know about Nearu Martial Art Class in Smethwick! Founded way back in 1990 by Amir himself, Nearu Self-defence combines both physical and mental aspects of martial arts into a training system that's both comprehensive and rewarding.
Amir's gym is open to everyone, with classes specifically tailored for different age groups. They've got sessions for little ones aged 3 to 5, kids from 5 to 12, mixed adult groups, and women-only fitness classes. Each class aims to boost fitness and self-confidence while bringing harmony between body and mind.
Self-defence is a big deal at Nearu. Students learn practical techniques for everyday situations, starting with movements based from the guard position to strengthen legs and reflexes. Beyond just defending yourself, these techniques also bolster confidence.
Breathing and mind control are key parts of Nearu training. Right from the start, students learn to tap into their body's natural energy, and as they advance, they discover how to use this power efficiently – even breaking bricks with hands and feet! The focus on breathing, often overlooked in our hectic lives, helps students achieve and maintain a relaxed state.
But it’s not just about the physical stuff. Nearu also promotes mental well-being. Their teachings blend self-defence with exercises that oxygenate the nervous system, leading to a peaceful mentality that students can carry into their everyday lives.
Nearu focuses on maintaining natural health without relying on fancy equipment, outdoor routines, or strict diets. They use a belting system, starting from White and moving through Yellow, Orange, Green, Blue, Purple, Brown, and ultimately Black, to mark and recognise student progress.
Classes begin with general exercises to warm up, improve balance, and enhance coordination. Students then dive into various techniques, wrapping up with breathing and muscle control practices through meditation.
Originally starting with just a few students in the Middle East in 1992, Nearu has evolved into a well-respected martial art class right here in Smethwick.
Whether you're looking to get fit, learn self-defence, or boost your overall well-being, Nearu Martial Art Class offers a welcoming space for all. Join in and see for yourself what Nearu's unique training system can do for you.
